Chapter 3: A Moment of Passion
The dinner was held in a five-star hotel, and the entrance was full of uniformed staff, Ji Beiran lightly pressed An Jingluo's shoulder to stop her from getting out of the car: "Please give the gentleman a chance to perform, please." ”
His eyes were sincere and sincere, and he almost didn't put his hands together, and the whale fell was amused to bend his eyebrows, relieving the tension and anxiety in his heart.
Getting out of the car, she subconsciously lowered her head and followed him, just like she had attended the red carpet with Jiang Li countless times before. Even if the habit engraved in the bones has not appeared for a long time, it will subconsciously repeat the action when encountering similar scenes.
Ji Beiran saw her walking behind, raised her left arm sideways, her eyes were gentle, An Whale stopped and looked up in confusion, and then she understood, put her hand on the crook of his arm, and the two walked side by side.
In the black car diagonally behind, Jiang Li looked at the backs of the two people in front of him who were leaning on each other, and felt particularly dazzling: An Whale Fall, it's time for you to pay for what you did before!
"Didn't you say dinner? Why are there masks? An Jingluo looked at the rabbit mask in Ji Beiran's hand suspiciously, "And why is yours a mask, but mine is a white gauze, and it's so narrow?" ”
Ji Beiran was also stunned, and shrugged: "Put it on first." ”
An Jing covered her eyes with a white veil with the help of the staff, and then opened the white mist in front of her, seeing that things were not real, so she held Ji Beiran's left arm throughout the whole process, followed step by step, and silently complained about the host of the dinner eight hundred times in her heart.
Pushing open the door of the banquet hall, the people wearing all kinds of masks inside looked at each other, and they were silent for a while.
Ann Whale landed in a dark red velvet dress, and the well-fitting cut showed off the delicate curves of her body. A large wavy hair with a soft and shiny gloss is draped behind him, with wide shoulder straps on one side and long sleeves that expose the arms, and a bare shoulder on the other side, revealing delicate collarbones and white arms, and the large slit on the right side looms with the stride to reveal the slender calves, and the lace-up stiletto heels are indescribably elegant.
The velvet dress exudes a faint pearl-like glow under the light, and with the white gauze covering the eyes, the retro dream adds a little mystery and playfulness, and people can't help but wonder what kind of beautiful eyes are covered by the white veil.
Beautiful like a medieval oil painting!
An Jingluo was greeted by Ji Beiran, she hung up her business smile, nodded her head, and felt the eyes of others up close all of a sudden, she was a little panicked, and she could only accompany her.
"Mr. Ji, Yanfu is not shallow, this young lady looks at the face, don't you want to introduce it?" A pot-bellied man wearing a pirate blindfold approached.
"Mr. Chen said with a smile, this is the company's new visual director, An Whale Fall, Whale Fall, this is Mr. Chen of Huatian Entertainment."
"Hello Mr. Chen, it's a pleasure to meet you." An Whale Fall vaguely distinguished the person in front of him and stretched out his hand.
"It turned out to be Director An, worthy of being the visual director, worthy of the name, haha, there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future." Mr. Chen shook the hand in front of him, and it was really a slender hand, and he was reluctant to let go for a while.
Ji Beiran frowned slightly, and lightly pulled away the hand of the whale fall: "Mr. Chen, let's go over there to meet Mr. Zhang, and we'll talk later." Before he could speak, he walked away with An Jingluo.
Jiang Li and Zhang Qian came in together, and happened to see their backs, and pouted and complained when they saw the dress on An Whale's body: "What is the origin of this woman, she is actually wearing a limited new style that has not yet been released by the Ji family, I haven't asked Ji Beiran for so long, hmph, I actually wore it on a stranger." ”
Jiang Li narrowed his eyes, and the hand holding the wine glass secretly tightened.
The host of the dinner party grew up abroad, and when he was bored after returning to China for a long time, he casually found a reason to invite people from the same industry to get together. The invitation is written as a professional exchange, but it is actually a party at a pseudo-masquerade ball. are all in the same circle, no matter what form it takes, as long as they can expand their contacts, no one will not give face.
It's not that An Whale has never participated in this kind of occasion before, but at that time, Jiang Li was the protagonist, she was just a little transparent with no sense of existence, this time everyone's eyes were on her, and the tension and discomfort soaked her palms and cramped her stomach.
Ji Beiran saw that her face was wrong, so he hurriedly interrupted the greetings and pulled her to sit down, asking her if she was okay. She was just too nervous, plus she had already digested what she had eaten at noon, and now she was a little hungry, so she asked Ji Beiran to get busy and find something to eat by herself.
Ji Beiran repeatedly confirmed that she was okay before leaving with the people around her.
An Jingluo just saw the small cake placed in the corner, and now it is just right to cushion the stomach, this kind of banquet must not be full, it is estimated that I will eat instant noodles when I go back in the evening.
She slowly approached the small cake, and secretly opened a crack in order to see it clearly, and was about to feast on it, when a voice from behind her Jiang Zong frightened her into place.
Mr. Jiang, it won't be Jiang Li, right? Probably not, right? But a voice not far away shattered her illusions. She hurriedly put down the white veil and stiffened towards the door.
"Whale Fall, where are you going? Have you eaten? "It's a coincidence that Ji Beiran is back.
"Well, I ate it, I want to go outside to breathe."
"I'll accompany you later, the dance is about to start, I wonder if it's an honor to invite a beautiful woman to dance together?" He bent down and held out his right hand.
"I'm not very good at dancing."
"It's okay, just follow in my footsteps."
An Jingluo put his hand in his palm and greeted Jiang Li on the way to the dance floor.
"Mr. Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm." Ji Beiran seems to be very familiar with Jiang Li.
"Xie Ji is always worried, who is this?" Jiang Li's eyes fell lightly on An Whale Luo.
"This is An Whale Fall, our company's new visual director, Whale Fall, this is Jiang Li of Huaixi Entertainment, Mr. Jiang, who used to be a super hot star." Ji Beiran winked at the whale fall.
“… Jiang is always good. An Jingluo tried to control his voice, but he was still a little trembling, and his hand was quietly withdrawn from Ji Beiran's palm.
"Miss An looks a little familiar, I wonder if we have met before?" Jiang Li's voice was flat and detached.
"Mr. Jiang, your pick-up routine is too old, Whale Fall just came back from the United States, you must not have seen it." Ji Beiran explained with a smile.
"Oh, I misunderstood, in order to apologize, can I invite Miss An to dance later?" He said sorry words in his mouth, but there was no apology on his face.
"I'm sorry, I don't know how to dance, Mr. Jiang is too polite." Ann lowered her head, avoiding his gaze.
"Since Director An is so faceless, I don't think there is any need for the next cooperation, so I will leave." After Jiang Li finished speaking, he raised his glass of wine and planned to turn around and leave.
Jiang Li, has your revenge on me begun?
An Jingluo gritted her teeth, when she was sorting out the information in the morning, she saw the cooperation case with Huaixi Entertainment, and it was almost discussed, if it was really ruined on herself, she couldn't afford the consequences, wouldn't it be dancing? !
"Mr. Jiang, please stay, I... I promise you. Through the white sha'an, she could feel the coldness in Jiang Li's peach blossom eyes, she lowered her head and quietly clenched her fists, she must not retreat.
The waltz music sounded, Ji Beiran took Whale Luo's hand again, and the two danced to the music.
"Whale Fall, did you know Jiang Li before? I think you're weird. He tightened the hands held by the two, "He never showed interest in any girl before, if it weren't for Zhang Qian by his side, I would have thought he had a crush on you." ”
"Hehe, you're thinking too much, I've heard his songs before, it's good." An Whale's mind was full of scenes of waiting to dance with Jiang Li, she had to cheer up her spirits, no matter what he did, she couldn't lose her temper.
After a waltz, Jiang Li invited An Whale to dance the next tango, and the moment his hand landed on his palm, his body instinctively trembled.
"Well, Mr. Jiang, I'm not very good at picking tango, don't mind if I accidentally don't keep up."
"Miss Ann is too modest." Jiang Li held her hand tightly with his left hand, and his right hand held her under the bones of her left shoulder, and his movements were natural as if he often did.
The two danced to the music, and An Jingluo put her hand on his shoulder, deliberately pulling away from him. To this day, the last thing she wants to admit is that he is still attractive to her.
A small climax in the middle, Jiang Li hugged An Whale's body to himself, and the moment the two of them met, An Whale fell tightened his body, and even forgot to take a step.
"An whale falls, after hiding for three years, you are finally willing to come back." Jiang Li leaned close to her ear, obviously whispering softly, but the words she said were like countless dense needles piercing her heart with a thousand holes, "Xiang Yu before, Ji Beiran now, it seems that you are doing really well." ”
"But your ability to seduce men has not improved at all, you used to dance tango to Xiang Yu, and now you are also tango to Ji Beiran. Oh, no, there is still a little bit of growth, at least now I have learned to use a sense of mystery, it seems that I have been studying abroad a lot in the past few years. His hot breath sprayed into her ears, and he even blew into her ears with a wicked taste as he spoke.
"Isn't this song "Por Una Cabeza" also familiar? Doesn't it feel a pity now that you deliberately chose the track you are good at but didn't dance with him? Did I sabotage your plans and annoy me? Jiang Li got closer and closer, and his lips even swept over her ears, intentionally or unintentionally.
An Jingluo gritted his back molars hard, his hands were grabbed by him, his back was hugged by him, and the heat in his ears flowed to all parts of his body with the crackling of blood, and finally all rushed to his heart.
She tilted her head slightly and staggered his lips, and if she endured it, this dance was about to end, and she kept silently reciting in her heart: If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan.
"What, I'm not right? What are you hiding, didn't you like me whispering to you the most before? Well? Jiang Li seemed to be irritated by her evasive actions, and he spoke without regard to proportion, and he didn't even know the severity of his movements.
An Jingluo was pulled hard by him, his chin hit his collarbone, and suddenly tears of pain flashed, and suddenly grievance and anger surged up, struggling to raise his head and glaring at him.
Because it was very close, Jiang Li saw her eyes and the mist in her eyes through the white veil, her heart moved, and she was about to speak, when the dance music ended, An Jingluo violently pushed him away and stumbled out.
The whale in the hallway ripped off the obstructive white veil and trembled all over his body, until his hands were propped up on the sink. Try to raise your head and force the tears back, crying makeup will be spent, the dinner is not over yet, you can't embarrass Chen'an, let alone embarrass in front of Jiang Li.
Jiang Li, the tango that was celebrated in college, only knew that she danced with Xiang Yu, but he didn't know why she danced with Xiang Yu at all.
At that time, she had a crush on Jiang Li, and Xiang Yu had a crush on her, which was the kind of like that would run out of her eyes when she covered her mouth. She has always been Xiang Yu is buddy, and accidentally revealed his feelings under Fei Fei's reminder, and after the two talked, Xiang Yu proposed that he wanted Whale Fall to dance with him, drawing an end to his first love that ended before it began.
The tango whale fell not only for Xiang Yu, but also for himself, immersed in the music woven by the violin and harmonica, and could forget the self that suffered from gains and losses and the humble and youthful unrequited love.
If I had known what happened later, would I still like Jiang Li?
"Are you still sad?" The body that suddenly approached behind her frightened her, Jiang Li slowly circled her, supporting the marble table with both hands, "Do you want me to help you recall the events after the school anniversary?" ”
An Jingluo struggled hard, desperately trying to push him away with both hands, but before she could turn around, his hands were clamped and trapped by his side with one hand, and the other hand pressed against her moving waist.
An Whale couldn't let go, and said coldly: "Jiang Li, let go of me, if you don't let go, I'm going to call someone." ”
Jiang Li snorted lightly to express his attitude, and then carefully looked at her shoulder as if he was studying her skirt: "An Whale Luo, you still look good in suspenders, this time you are not afraid that Ji Beiran is not interested in you?" ”
An Jingluo looked at him in the mirror for a few seconds, and then turned his face away, his long hair swayed gently with her movements, Jiang Li glanced at a touch of color under her shoulder straps, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The body is more honest and fast than the brain, and with a hard pull of his left hand, it was too late when An Whale fell to stop in a hurry, and the shoulder strap was split in two and fluttered lightly on his chest.
